Metallurgy

Metallurgy makes three demands at once: mass concentrated on a small footprint, sensitivity to weather, and repeating circuits between the mill, the processor and the end user. The body is chosen for weight distribution rather than volume. Coils, sheet and sections need different lashing from palletised cargo, and once lengths grow, dimensions and permits come into it. Some material reaches us before it reaches the customer: cutting to size and batch preparation let a plant take delivery of finished pieces instead of arranging the work itself.

Grinding a metal part at a workshop bench
Aisle between warehouse racking
Trailer on the road at dusk
High-bay warehouse with pallet racking
Heavy material, sensitive to moisture, and usually moved on repeating lanes between plants.

Typical requirements

  • A body chosen for weight distribution, not volume
  • Protection from moisture for the duration of the movement
  • Lashing matched to coils, sheet and sections
  • A repeatable schedule for circuits between plants

How we meet them

  • Weight and dimensions verified before the vehicle is chosen
  • Standing vehicle schedules on repeating lanes
  • Cutting to size and batch preparation ahead of delivery
  • Formalities handled for movements beyond the legal envelope
